the front one by where it says made in USA is for the coolant gauge , the other one is like above stated is the ACT , air charge temperature sensor , measures the air temp going in the engine , usually its in the airbox or made in the MAF on newer cars , the ECT or engine coolant temp sensor that measure the coolant temp to the computer is screwed in on the other side of the intake and screws in the pipe that runs back to the heater hoses
